Jason,
My advice to you would be that, to avoid criticism, you should cite your sources whenever possible or, if you cannot do so at the time that you post, be prepared to do so later, if you are challenged. That way, if you quote an ancient source, others can look it up and, if they disagree with your interpretation, engage in a reasoned discussion. On the other hand, if you are relying on a modern book, those who are familiar with it can say if it is reliable or, if it is not, warn you and others off it.
